Louise will be greatly missed by her family and a community of friends. Louise will be forever remembered as "Weezy". She was an extraordinary person who was always very giving, generous and kind, always putting everyone before herself. She truly lived for her family. Her grandkids were the light of her life. Her husband was her rock and her soulmate. Her children her pride and joy, and she appreciated the joy and comfort of her beloved dog Nina.

Louise enjoyed the little things in life, like sitting on her front porch, whether rain or shine, visiting with family, neighbors and friends, or just taking a ride around town. Her faith in God helped sustain her throughout her life and through her illness. She never complained about being sick, always maintaining a brave front so she would not worry those she loved the most.

We will truly miss her and keep her forever in our thoughts, hearts and prayers. This is not goodbye, it just a simple thought and shows of our love and appreciation for you until we see your loving face again.
